My first shot at a full custom loop that includes GPU. 680 lightning blue kind of glares through the red theme. Any way to turn of its power phase LEDs? I know I can remove the GPU reactor.

Cable management the best I could with so many wires it was really tough. There is so much room behind the motherboard tray that I was able to put my old NZXT mesh to the side of the front radiator with some 3M tape. I did remove the 3M from the CPU backplate don't worry.

My stealthed optical drive.

My monitor setup. Two 24s at 1080P and a 27in at 1440P.

Woooo a 900D build! Very nice!

Question, you're missing a fan on your top 360 rad - was this because of the mobo VRM heatsink getting in the way, or due to that watercooling fitting bending too sharply to allow a fan?

Secondly soz if you already posted specs in an earlier post, but if you didn't....specs? :P

Agility 3 got it a long time ago as they were close in performance and quality to Vertex 3. The Agility 4 seem to be plagued with terrible failure rates. Just running 4.6GHz at 1.3V right now. Hottest temp was 61C on the second core for CPU. Havent overclocked my GPU yet still at stock 1200MHz, but I have flashed its BIOS for unlocked voltage.

Pretty sure the Agility 3 had worse failure rates, especially back in 2011, what with the whole SandForce SF-2281 controller fiasco and OCZ being very poor in acknowledging that a problem DID exist. I had an Agility 3 for a whole week, was plagued with freezes and slow-downs of the computer in general, made my raiding a bitch.

Then I returned it, got a Crucial m4 128GB, have not looked back since. It's now been 2 years. ^_^

Had this a little over two years it was pretty awful for the first few months until they fixed the firmware. Has been rock solid ever since. I actually have three more throughout the house because they are so cheap and have been very reliable for me.

For a basement nerd cave it's surprisingly not horrible down there. I sort of wish I didn't have
to have a living room for people to sit and talk in. I'd much rather just have combination sitting
room/computer station/meeting room/etc. like the office of a supervillan CEO in the movies.

We haven't had a black-and-white picture with too much bokeh for a while. Where are those guys?

Competely jealous how clean that looks o.o Where did you get that desk?

the wall paint looks like a very similar pinkish-orange shade to my computer room

You can snag the desk by assembling parts from ikea. It's not really a specific desk, just those components you can buy (table top, legs, storage units, drawers, etc) put together. The total price for all the bits and pieces was probably around $500-ish here, and probably much less costly in Sweden or America.

The reason I went with flat-pack rather than something from DWR is that you can modify it without feeling guilty or worrying that you're about to destroy $2500 worth of furniture. On a mac it's no big deal: there's just one or two cables (power, and maybe one to your screen) but my PC had 10 cables on the desk and then another dozen for printer, usb devices, speakers, network, etc. There's no way to have that look clean without giving it some attention:

Use a hole-saw to cut a 10cm circle in the 'cubby hole' that holds the tower case to route cables into it.

Into the pull-drawers add 4-port powered USB hubs so that your tablet/phone/camera have a place to charge out of sight

Into the cabinet-style drawers add power bars so that your 'big toys' can charge (laptop) out of sight

Use hose clamps(?) to route cables down the back of the of the shelves.

All you need is a hand-held power drill, a couple of hole-saws (2cm 5cm and 10cm), a handful of screws, and maybe a USB extension cable or two. Cheap and easy cable management for your gaming corner.

Here's a shot of my gaming setup. I really need to do an overhaul on it soon as I'm really uncomfortable for some reason. That and I hate not having my 3rd screen over on the right side of the desk. And my tower is way to big to be up on the desk as well. But I have no ikea near me, or within 30mins of me and I haven't seen any other nice looking desks. And I don't have the money to drop $700+ on a desk and cable managing stuff =/. Not to mention I want a nice 27" 1440p monitor.
